That would be correct, T-shaped or edge to face

Subject: [ccp4bb] Tryptophan-Adenine interaction: T-shaped stacking?

 

Dear CCP4BB,

 

One tryptophan residue (side chain) in my case regulates the binding of AMP. The attached figure representing the relative position of the tryptophan and AMP. I am not very familiar with the chemistry in terms of π-stacking. So I am wondering whether it is a T-shaped stacking interaction between the aromatic rings? Any thought? 

 

Thanks!

 

 

Kind regards,

Wenhe
